The procedure I use:- Start a DOS window from the Visual Studio start menu (NOT start-run-'cmd')- Execute the following commands: cd C:\ mkdir plplot-static cd plplot-static cmake C:\plplot-trunk -G "NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH="C:\Programming" -DwxWidgets_LIB_DIR=%WXWIN%\lib\vc_lib -DwxWidgets_CONFIGURATION=mswu -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF (to also compile examples: add option "-DBUILD_TEST=ON" to the list) nmake nmake install > If I modify %WXWIN% to my wxWidgets installation directory, it still results in "ENABLE_wxwidgets: OFF". In the list that comes scrolling by, I notice no wxwidgets check anymore (compared to the last time I compiled my version, before the computer update). It also says "manually-specified variables were not used by the project: wxWidgets_CONFIGURATION", which to me indicates the wxWidgets checking ability has been removed. > Is this a know modification / error, and how to fix this? Hi Joost: I have recently gotten wxwidgets to work on the Wine version of Windows using CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH and CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH to help cmake find the wxwidgets headers and libraries. I also used -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON and I did not specify -DwxWidgets_CONFIGURATION. To make further progress please capture the complete cmake output and also the CMakeCache.txt file and send them to this list as a compressed tarball attachment. Even though I don't use wxWidgets_CONFIGURATION myself, I was surprised that cmake complained that was an unused variable. That variable is documented in the CMake-2.8.12 documentation and also the FindwxWidgets.cmake file that is part of the cmake-2.8.12 installation. So that message is a clue that something is wrong, but we will have a much better chance of helping you to figure out what is wrong if you share with us the complete cmake output and the cmake cache file requested above. By the way, part of that cmake output will tell us your cmake version, and if you are not already using cmake-2.8.12, I recommend you update to it since that is the one I have been using recently.
